Root canal 5days ago. now bloody taste in mouth. started amoxicillin before root canal 250mg 3x day for 8 days. possible infection still present?

Bloody Taste: There can be many reasons for the coppery "bloody" taste in your mouth, and may or may not be related to your root canal treatment. The only way to determine the cause is to return to the General Dentist or Specialist Endodontist who did your treatment for a reevaluation.
